Congratulations on forming your own kingdom, Butterlord!Īssuming you decided to support an existing ruler instead, that’s also fine as well. If you were at war with your former liege, you’ll be at peace once more. Note: Funnily enough, if you surrender the Dragon Banner to a ruler, it won’t even increase your relations.Īnyway, let’s say you wanted to start your own kingdom and you’ve met the requirements, speak to Arzagos or Istiana to complete the quest. The same steps also apply if you choose to follow Istiana’s advice, except that you’ll need to focus on imperial rulers. I won’t need to reach clan rank 3 or recruit a lot of troops anymore.

If I choose to create a non-imperial kingdom, it’d require me to gain independence from Vlandia and either (a) relinquish all my holdings and take the diplomatic relations hit, or (b) keep my holdings, be at war with Vlandia, and incur an even heavier relationship malus.Īlternatively, I could offer Neretze’s Dragon Banner to Derthert since he already leads a non-imperial kingdom. In my Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord playthrough, I joined Vlandia as King Derthert’s vassal and I also own a couple of settlements.

Go attack the hideouts and defeat their respective leaders and you’ll have the Dragon Banner ready. According to Istania and Arzagos, these two camps have the missing pieces of the Dragon Banner. You’ll also be notified of two bandit hideouts near the main settlements (seen above). Arzagos, meanwhile, lives in Mannurath he prefers that the empire be destroyed and that a non-imperial faction should rule in its place.

It’s possible that some mechanics may change in due course, so please inform us if we need to update certain details. Note: This guide is intended for Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord‘s early access stage. Previously, we’ve detailed how you can complete Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord‘s main quest “Neretzes’ Folly.” The quest was quite a folly in and of itself, but it’ll eventually have you assemble the “Dragon Banner.” The continuation of the main quest would subsequently lead to the “Conspiracy” quest and your ability to form a kingdom or support an existing one.
